Overview

Embark on a captivating small group journey to Poas Volcano, where you will meet the fiery heart of Costa Rica's wilderness. Led by our experienced local biologists, this intimate experience will take you as close as possible to the volcano's awe-inspiring might. Immerse yourself in lush cloud forests teeming with native flora, fauna and funga. Breathe in the crisp mountain air, explore volcanic trails, and delight yourself with one of our favorite birdwatching hotspots where you will see colorful flying jewels and take amazing photos. This is more than a tour; it's an intimate odyssey through the untamed beauty of Poas Volcano and its surroundings. Our company is dedicated to delving deeper than the surface. We'll lead you through the jungle with a naturalist's spirit, fueled by curiosity and a sense of wonder.

Itinerary

  • Poas Volcano

    After being picked up by your professional biologist guide in our private 4x4 transportation, we will drive about 2 hours on a scenic road that leads to the National Park. Once we get there, the weather gets cold, the sun shines, and the smell of sulfur would give us the welcome to one of the largest craters in the world and one of the most active volcanos in CR. We will enjoy the view when the volcano gets clear and immerse in the dwarf vegetation that leads to the extinct crater which now hosts life, admire this particular forest and the lush, verdant surroundings through biologist eyes.

The volcano and the birds are magical.

Published on Jan, 2025

David led us on a wonderful experience. We saw so many amazing birds and the Poas Volcano is awesome. We took the longer hike to the lagoon and back down. You are aware of the elevation but the trail is well maintained. Enjoy the cloud forest! The waterfall and the birds - hummingbirds, toucans, tanagers, Baltimore Orioles and more with a delicious lunch rounded out a great day.

great tour with Eduardo

Great day out with knowledgeable guide

Great day out with thoughtful knowledgeable guide. Volcano fascinating, cloudy at first then it cleared!! Late lunch with one of the most stunning views I’ve ever seen and a great variety of birds. Lovely way to spend one of last days of our visit to Costa Rica. Shame we booked too late to be able to visit the animal rehab centre

A full day out with a very knowledgeable guide. Excellent experience!

We stopped at a coffee plantation then the Poas volcano then La Paz waterfall then lunch at a restaurant with fantastic (waterfall) views & bird feeders with humming birds & an assortment of tanagers. All with the company of an excellent tour guide - Rigo.
